A Long History of Innovation
Cummins Filtration began in 1958 as a single filter production line developed by
Cummins Engine Company to meet the high performance requirements of Cummins
diesel engines.
Then known as the Seymour Filter Company, the facility was located in Seymour, near
the Cummins headquarters in Columbus, Indiana. Production in those early years
consisted of two employees sewing together cloth-bag lube-oil filters.

In 1963, the company changed its name to Fleetguard, the brand that became the Seymour, IN filter
cornerstone for the diesel engine filtration industry. The plant moved to Cookeville,
Tennessee in 1967 and product remains there today. plant
Nearly sixty years after the first bag filters were sewn, Cummins Filtration is the
technology leader in filtration products for heavy-duty diesel engines with a global
presence on six continents.
From the very beginning, Cummins Filtration has led the industry with innovative
products designed to increase vehicle uptime, optimize engine performance, reduce
environmental impact and provide longer life for equipment to protect the owner's
investment. Cookeville, TN filter
